found hidden away in wooden box,
which was concealed under a pile
of newspapers in the coner of Lingg's
CELL Some time ago Sheriff Matson
| decided to search and clean out the
cells of the distinguished prisoners,
and to-day was set for the ex-
animation. Word was sent by the
Sheriff to the friends of the con-
demned, saying that no admittance
would be given to the jail, and this
morning the entire force of the Dep
uty Sheriffs reported at the Jail for
duty. 1t was shortly after $50
O'Clock when Lingg and Engells
were led from their cell to the con-
sultation cage and the search began.
| Engell's cell was the first entered
and thoroughly explored and the
clothing hanging around the cell
searched, but beyond few cigar
| boxes, some fruit, books and papers
nothing found. Then the Deputy
Sheriffs entered Lingg's cell, while
it's former occupant planted himself
in corner of his temporary prison
and watched them with eager eyes.
He was as pale as death and
! trembled like an aspen leaf as the
searchers moved around in the lit
tie walled room. Suddenly two of
the three men inside jumped out to
consider, while the third held at
arms length small wooden box,
which he carefully carried to the
Jail office and laid on Jaller Foltz's
desk. The box contained six
pieces of gas pipe, each about six
or seven inches in length, filled
with some heavy substance and
plugged at both ends. Jailer Foltz
picked up one which was closed at
one end with a round iron stopper,
and one of the officers pronounced
it verltable dynamite bomb. Just
then Sheriff Matson arrived at the
Jail and ordered that the dangerous
things be replaced in box and
| though there was no doubt as to the
result of the examination. Then
the search was continued, but be-
yond quantity of rubbish nothing
was found. Then the cells of Par
sons, Fischer, Spies, Schwab and
Fielden were searched in the order
named, but no contraband articles
of any kind were found.
The news of the finding of the
bombs spread like wildfre, and a
universal reaction of the amnesty
sentiment was Immediately appaI-
ent. Hundreds of citizens who had
signed the petition for clemeney re-
| GREETED their action and wished they
had never signed their names to the
paper. Twenty OF the officers of the
Central detail were in the squad
room when a reporter told them the
news. Instantly there was storm
of indignation. The bombs recalled
to them the scenes at the Haymark-
ct, and there was but one express
ion of comment on the subject. One
lieutenant sarcasticaliy remarked ::
"Well, they ought to pardon Lingg
anyway" The general opinion
around the police stations was that
whatever might be the others fate,
Lingg's doom was sealed, and that
he would have to go to the gallows.
1t is doubtful if the condemned
men will longer be allowed to enjoy
the privilege of reading the daily
papers. 1t was suggested to the
Sheriff that advertising columns
might easily be utilized as means
of communicating III cipher between
them and outsiders, and in ali prob
ability they will be deprived of
their principal pleasure.
THREATENING THE GOVERNORS LIFE.
1t has just transpired that Cover

few days received several commu-
